[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work. I also spend a lot of time with my kids. I haven't read the study in detail but I will say that I think many SAHMs believe there is a great value to hours 4+ with their kids during the day and I don't believe it. I am close to my kids, know them well, and they are happy and secure based on my spending around 4 hours a weekday focused on them, their father spending 2-4 hours, and their loving nanny/teachers the rest of the time. If you've only ever stayed at home I can see how easy it would be to think that the next 4 hours after the first 4 make a big difference but having seen it from my side, I just don't think it does. [/quote] I completely agree. And to go a step further, I think they are enormously positively influenced by the other caregivers in their lives. I think the study is a step in the right direction.[/quote]
